| The tumor or its effects, atelectasis or pneumonia, are usually evident on the chest radiograph. |
|
| The cause of atelectasis is thought to be due to enlargement of silicotic lymph nodes based on image study. |
|
| This edema leads to hyperinflation and atelectasis of the lungs, and wheezing. |
|
| Indications for postoperative mechanical ventilation are respiratory acidosis, severe hypoxemia, atelectasis, and pneumonia. |
|
| Of these, one case with pulmonary aspergillosis and one case with atelectasis were confirmed. |
|
| The result is known as atelectasis, i.e. the tissues of the middle ear begin absorbing the air in the middle ear. |
|
| Compressive atelectasis is caused by an external pressure on the lungs that drives the air out. |
|
| We treat benign conditions such as atelectasis and incidents of rib fractures differently. |
|
| Histologic examination shows folded and fibrotic visceral pleura with atelectasis and variable amounts of chronic inflammation in the adjacent lung parenchyma. |
|
| In a period of 18 months, we have encountered 4 cases of right middle lobe atelectasis associated with endobronchial silicotic lesions of right middle lobe bronchi. |
|
| Hypoxemia, for example, has significant clinical implications, yet hypoxemia in itself is not a diagnosis but a component of other diagnoses such as atelectasis or pneumonia. |
|
| Compressive atelectasis develops with any space-occupying lesion such as pneumothorax, hemothorax, pleural effusion, or abdominal distention. |
|
| Right-sided pleural effusion and right middle lobe atelectasis were also present. |
|
| To assess the ability of selective bronchography to predict which patients with neoplastic postobstructive atelectasis will respond to interventional therapies directed at the reexpansion of the affected lung. |
|
| Mucous plugs can result that cause atelectasis. |
|
| Obstructive atelectasis may be caused by foreign objects lodged in one of the major bronchial passageways, causing air trapped in the alveoli to be slowly absorbed by the blood. |
|
| Necropsy also revealed overdistension of the stomach, hemorrhage of glandular gastric mucosa, obstructive atelectasis of the lungs, and aspiration pneumonia. |
|
| Potential postoperative complications include subphrenic abcess, hemorrhage, duodenal or gastric fistula, atelectasis, pneumonia, wound infection, sepsis, and renal failure. |
|
| Whilst in this study the difference between groups in atelectasis and endotracheal tube occlusion did not reach statistical significance, these were lower in the NSI group. |
|
| The study did not identify a statistically significant effect of NIV on the incidence of atelectasis, but statistical power for this outcome was low. |
|
|
|
| Shallow breathing may correspond to worsening infiltrates and atelectasis. |
|
| Furthermore, atelectasis in the dorsobasal and caudal areas of the lungs has been described because of limited pulmonary inflation and recruitment. |
|
| Atelectasis can be responsible for fever and hypoxemia post-operatively. |
